From arrival to departure we felt welcome and looked after. The kids (14 & 5 years old) were taken care of and kept warm between rides and had a blast going down the tracks of their choice both alone and together. While I stayed below watching from the sheltered viewing area with great heating on the chilly morning. Even had the option of buying a hot drink while there. Such a great idea having the spas and sauna available. Would definitely go again, and highly recommend it to others
Kia ora! We're so glad that you and your family enjoyed your time with us. We do our best to keep everyone warm during the winter months, as we know it can get chilly in between ZORB rides. We look forward to seeing you next time!
Something not to miss! Laughing the whole way down. Went when it was only 60F but they have hot tubs at the top and bottom and warm water in the balls
Our 3 oldest children did 3 Zorb rides together and they all had an absolutely blast! Staff were polite and helpful. The kids could sit in the sauna or spa between rides and it was a quiet day, so the the wait times weren’t long. It is one of the more expensive activities we did, but great memories for the kids!
Kia ora, Adventure54868441614! We're so glad your children had a great time! We've had guests come back 10 years later saying they visited us when they were kids, so we'll plan on having you all back as a family tradition! 😄
Super fun activity a must do if you are in Rotura
Kia Ora, monarups! Thanks for visiting and leaving us a review. Come back any time!
We had an amazing experience at ZORB Rotorua! We booked the VIP package, which included a T-shirt and four rides, and it was absolutely worth it. The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. They even allowed us to check in early, which was extremely helpful and appreciated. The rides were such a blast and definitely perfect for adventure and thrill seekers visiting Rotorua. It was a chilly day, so the jacuzzis afterward were an excellent touch and made the experience even better. Highly recommend this spot if you’re looking for something fun, unique, and unforgettable!
Kia Ora, Rmquispe! The hot tubs are an absolute must-have for the New Zealand Winters! We're so glad that you were able to visit us and that you enjoyed your time with us!
Great experience. Completely nuts! The Zorb are fabulous and it felt safe and well organised. Highly recommend!! We need one in Geelong 😃
Kia Ora, markhJ6949WU! We're so stoked that you enjoyed your time with us! Hopefully we see you back here soon!
exhilarating rolls downhill. Safe, fun, screams amid laughter. Hot tubs to keep warm in between rolls downhill was a nice touch but overall the changing facilities are very lacking, especially in slightly chilly weather.
Kia Ora, greenfishy! Thank you for visiting and leaving a review. We're glad to hear you enjoyed your time with us! We'd love to hear more about your experience with our changing rooms. Please feel free to email our Operations Manager, Story, at story@zorb.com.
It was such a fun experience. I was laughing the whole time. So unique and a beautiful location. The hot tubs were a nice touch also. You definitely get moved around a lot but none of us felt sick.
Kia Ora, michellesabourin! Thank you for visiting and leaving a review. We're stoked that you enjoyed your time with us and got to experience the full ZORB experience with the hot tubs!
My husband and I were traveling near Rotorua and made a wrong turn. We ended up in the Zorb parking lot and decided it looked like fun. The staff was so nice and friendly! Zorbing is a BLAST and I would highly recommended it as a fun and unique activity!!!
Kia Ora, Anne! What a lucky wrong turn, we'll call it fate! We're so glad you enjoyed your time with us, and we can't wait to see you next time!
Friendly staff, always an extremely fun and exciting ride down the hill, clean and everything you need for changing before and after. The hot tub is a nice touch at the end. I do remember years ago the guy who tipped us out was a happy, energetic, fun guy but this time and the time before was not like that, I missed that. And no photo opportunity even to buy. I think a go-pro or something like it, add-on would be a great idea. But we always make a special trip to Rotorua to do the Zorb so we will definitely be going back next time we're in NZ!! Highly recommend!!
Kia Ora, Sherpa51078924898! Thank you for visiting and leaving a review. We're glad to hear you had a great time! We actually do provide GoPro rentals and SD cards as an add-on. Next time you're in, feel free to ask our front desk staff! We'll look forward to seeing you next time!
